Open and Accessible

WEBINAR:On-Demand

"I'm excited to work in a field full of people who are so aware
of – passionate about – accessibility issues. On one
hand, we have access to the most cutting-edge technologies, but on
the other hand, we are working on ways to improve and deliver this
technology to people who might not have the same access –
people with disabilities, or in rural parts of the world, or
lower-income families and schools, and so on. I'm always mindful
that even in our own neighborhoods there are children and adults
who simply don't have access to what we might consider necessities
in our own lives, including cell phones, email, and the Internet.
I've been that low-income child, and I've been that single mother
who had to pick between hot water and the wonderful world of the
web."
